Bernardo de Padua

Founder/CEO

Founder of Quero Education, YC S16 and YCG S18. Scaled company from 0 to 800 employees mostly on bootstrap from 2013 to 2019. Global EdTech and LatAm angel investor. Hacker at heart, messing with web and PC stuff since I was a kid in Brazil in the 90’s. Computer Engineering Degree from ITA in Brazil, the IIT Delhi of LatAm, probably the hardest College admission exam in the americas. Dropped out of a Master’s degree in CS to start my first failed startup in 2010.
